With Independence Day fast approaching, it’s not surprising to see a number of online sales kicking off to entice you to spend some money over the holiday. And Microsoft isn’t one to be left out or miss an opportunity, so has decided to offer a number of games at a discount on Xbox Live between now and July 5.

The sale is being called the Xbox Live Ultimate Game Sale, and is split into two parts. The first part is persistent offers, which are the following games at sales pricing until July 5:

Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway – $4.99 (usually $29.99)

Bulletstorm – $4.99 (usually $19.99)

Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 – $4.99 (usually $14.99)

Crysis – $4.99 (usually $19.99)

Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga – $4.99 (usually $29.99)

Dragon Age Origins – $4.99 (usually $14.99)

Far Cry Instincts Predator – $4.99 (usually $19.99)

Mass Effect – $4.99 (usually $14.99)

Perfect Dark Zero – $2.99 (usually $14.99)

Prey – $2.99 (usually $19.99)

WWE ’13 – $14.99 (usually $59.99)

The second part of the sale is daily offers. Currently they include:

Borderlands 2 – $9.99 (usually $39.99)

Assassin’s Creed 3 – $14.99 (usually $39.99)

Far Cry 3 – $19.99 (usually $59.99)

Max Payne – $9.99 (usually $39.99)

Major Nelson posted those offers at 10pm PT yesterday, so I assume the new daily offers will appear at roughly the same time today. The sale prices aren’t limited to the U.S. and should be available on Xbox Live in your territory, too, if the games are available. You can also get a preview of what other games we can expect to get a discount later this week.
